Although I've still got the original Bridgies on the K8, Michelin Pilot Power 2CT were my tyre of choice on my Suzuki SV1000S (2CT meaning regular soft compound in the middle and super soft outer edges). With regular hard riding and some touring as well the rear lasted around 6000kms and the front about 11000kms. So they ended up being pretty expensive. But the grip was spectacular.
I guess tyre wear depends on how you ride - but for me it was worth the extra $$$ to have so much confidence where it counted most for me - the twisty stuff.
